As international trade becomes increasingly more complex, universally used rules are essential to avoid misunderstandings and costly disputes. Regularly incorporated into sales contracts worldwide, Incoterms® rules define, in a set of three-letter trade terms, the risks and responsibilities of buyers and sellers in an international sales contract.

This course looks at the rules from a practical point of view and explains all the costs, delivery and risk implications and where to go for more help and information.

By the end of this one day accredited course, delegates will be able to:

• Understand why Incoterms® were created and their purpose
• Understand the definitions of the Incoterms® 2010 rules
• Identify the parties involved in Incoterms®, their roles and responsiblities
• Understand the benefits of Incoterms®
• Identify where to go for help and information on Incoterms®
